Title: Brainkey verification is not working
Post by: gn1 on March 12, 2016, 08:57:32 am

One person reported a problem to me saying that "verification of brainkey" is not working. Basically, he is trying to copy and paste the brainkey into the textbox, but gets the error message, "Brainkey does not match, keep going…"

I was able to replicate it on my account as well. I'm not sure which version of Openledger introduced this problem, but can you guys take a look at this, please?

Browser?

Only chrome is officially supported AFAIK.

We should have a testing procedure after every release that at minimum involves creating an account using the faucet, saving the brainkey, and then restoring the wallet using the brainkey.

It does work on the version out there now, I use copy/paste.   Instead of the brain-key use the backup download.  This will cover any keys you import and in the future stealth.
